Abstract

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a key role in modulating cellular metabolic processes. AMPK, a serine-threonine kinase, is a heterotrimeric complex of catalytic alpha-subunits and regulatory beta- and gamma-subunits with multiple isoforms. Mutations in the cardiac gamma(2)-isoform have been associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and pre-excitation syndromes. However, physiological regulation of AMPK complexes containing different subunit isoforms is not well defined and is important for an understanding of the function of this signaling pathway in the intact heart. We evaluated the kinase activity associated with heart AMPK complexes containing specific alpha- and gamma-subunit isoforms of AMPK in an in vivo rat model of regional ischemia. Left coronary artery occlusion activated the immunoprecipitated alpha(1)-isoform (6-fold, P < 0.01) and alpha(2)-isoform (9-fold, P < 0.01) in the ischemic left ventricle compared with sham controls. The degree of alpha-subunit activation depended on the extent of ischemia and paralleled echocardiographic contractile dysfunction. The regulatory gamma(1)- and gamma(2)-isoforms were expressed in the heart. The gamma(1)- and gamma(2)-isoforms coimmunoprecipitated with alpha(1)- an...Continue Reading

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.
